Tired of being told to “just sleep train” your baby? Let’s talk about what’s actually normal. In this conversation with Brittni from Resting in Motherhood, we’re busting myths about baby sleep, breaking down the science behind night wakings, and exposing how the sleep training industry profits from moms who feel broken. Brittni Mella Cepeda is a certified infant & toddler sleep specialist, mom to one, and worked with over 600 families to help moms get more sleep without having to sleep train or ignoring their instincts.

We dive into the science of baby sleep, why night wakings are normal, the impact of sleep training on a baby’s nervous system, and how co-sleeping and contact naps can actually support your child’s development. Whether you’re exhausted and considering sleep training or you just want to feel less alone in the middle of the night, this episode is your permission slip to trust your instincts.
